Summary: A Great Scanner That Does A Lot Of Things
Comment: I love this scanner! I got it over a year ago and it is still working strong. I got it for the ADF feature. I use the ADF with Acrobat Writer. Very rarely does the ADF jam and when it does its due mostly to user error. When it does jam it does not eat the paper and it�s easy to correct. The software that comes with it is simple to use. Make sure your computer has loads of memory if you plan on scanning anything over 600dpi. I�ve also used this to archive photos taken on the job and it does a great job at that. I don�t suggest buying this scanner if your main requirement is film or slides. For that you should get a dedicated machine. I�ve used with USB and SCSI. SCSI is faster but usually I don�t notice the difference unless I�m scanning over 600 dpi. The only bad thing I can say about this machine is that it can be noise. Good luck.

Summary: A very poor scanner; Very noisy and Poor photo scan quality
Comment: When using the automatic document feeder, it produces document scans that are skewed slightly. HP technical support says this is normal. I find this completely unsatisfactory. You will not be able to produce accurate document scans.

Do not purchase this scanner if you intend to scan photographs. The scan quality if very poor. Scans appear with no contrast and overly pixelated in dark areas of photo scans. The colors do not appear correct.

The performance is also unsatisfactory. It is very slow and extremely noisy.
